Škoda Auto Volkswagen India Private Limited (SAVWIPL) has received multiple recognitions for being an outstanding workplace. SAVWIPL achieved a significant milestone by securing the “Top Employer” certification and the "Best Companies to Work For in Asia", both for the second consecutive year.  Adding to this remarkable success, the company has garnered accolades across three categories at the Economic Times Human Capital MENA awards. These achievements underscore SAVWIPL's unwavering commitment to make the workplace employee friendly and engaging.

The Top Employer certification is a hallmark of quality in the realm of human resources. The process comprises a rigorous evaluation spanning six critical organizational dimensions to choose the winner. This detailed audit involved approximately 260 assessment points, validating the company's commitment to ensure the best workplace practices and strategic human resource management.
 
The recognition of being the "Best Companies to Work For in Asia" for the second consecutive year was based on a comprehensive evaluation of three core areas - Feel, Think, and Do - through employee feedback and a thorough audit, demonstrating SAVWIPL's success in creating an engaging workplace environment.
 
Adding to these achievements, SAVWIPL's debut participation in the Economic Times Human Capital MENA Awards resulted in recognition across three significant categories: Health and Wellness Excellence, Global Talent Acquisition, and Environmental and Social Governance Leadership.
 
Speaking about the achievement, Piyush Arora, Managing Director and CEO of Škoda Auto Volkswagen India, said “Securing the “Top Employer” certification for the second year in a row is not just a badge of honour; it reflects our deep commitment to creating an environment where our employees can thrive. We understand the vital role our people play in ensuring our success, and we earnestly work towards empowering them with a culture of innovation, integrity, inclusivity, and well-being. Receiving the Top Employer certification, along with being named among the “Best Companies to Work For in Asia” and bagging multiple accolades at the “Economic Times Human Capital MENA Awards” –  is a clear reflection of the ethos we carry, and the Group’s proven world-class work culture. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to the highest standards of compliance, ethics, and integrity, ensuring a workplace that is built on trust, respect, and responsible business practices.”
 
Sarma Chillara, CHRO, Škoda Auto Volkswagen India, said, “Achieving a reward goes beyond individual success; it's about creating an environment and fostering a culture where every effort is valued and the employees are motivated to put their best foot forward. Bagging these three prestigious awards and two of which we have won consecutively, reinforces my belief in our teams’ dedication and our collective commitment to build a culture of excellence.”

These accolades collectively reflect SAVWIPL's strategic focus on inclusive and transparent workplace practices, employee development, and organizational excellence. As SAVWIPL continues to set benchmarks in the automotive sector, these recognitions reaffirm its position as an “Employer of choice”. By prioritizing employee well-being and engagement, the company is not only enhancing its workplace culture but also driving industry standards for excellence.
